We used reiserfs for a while on SuSE systems thinking that it
would be OK because it was the default.  Unfortunately I have had
several occassions where we had massive data loss with reiserfs
so haven't used for several years.

We moved to ext3 on the ``/'' file system with xfs on other file
systems on SuSE with no problems.  The ext3 systems seem to be
bullet proof, and xfs doesn't require fsck in most cases.

We have used ext3 on all the CentOS systems as it doesn't support
xfs in the default configuration.
